Minor in Political Science
Through the courses it offers, the research its faculty, staff and students conduct, and through the events it sponsors, the St. Mary’s University Department of Political Science seeks to examine two vital questions:
What is – as Aristotle called it – the good life?
How can we, as members of the civic community, be effective creators of a good life characterized by legal and social justice?
To answer them, the Department commits itself to the education of the whole student, to the scholarly life, and to an approach that reaches out in service to society.
A political science degree opens the door to many possible career opportunities, from journalist to intelligence officer.
